Cytokines play an important role in regulating fibroblast function and is likely to play a key role in regulating the initiation and progression of scarring in any fibrotic disease. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) has been implicated in the development of a variety of fibrotic diseases. The aim of this study was to compare IL-6 expression in fibroblasts cultured from normal human buccal mucosa and oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) specimens and further explore the potential mechanism that may lead to induce IL-6 expression.
